What other choices did Caroline have? Frederick would probably think that she was messing around and she couldn't call her father or Levi either! If she did, then wouldn't her entire family find out about it?

By that time, she would be subjected to her family's rules! Her parents were not as open-minded as her Aunt Clements. There was a rule in her household stating that she wasn't allowed to go to entertainment places alone. Besides that, she even needed to inform her parents before going to her friend's party!

If her family discovered that she had come here alone and was almost caught up in an incident, the punishment for her actions would have been inevitable! Caroline bit her lips in horror at the memory of her brother who was whipped until his skin was torn.

Caroline wasn't twenty-five yet! In her family, she was not even of age to freely roam in and out of a place like the nightclub!

What should she do? Who could guarantee her safety without selling her out to her family? Caroline thought to herself.

Caroline was on tenterhooks as she began to frown. With her condition then, it was impossible to hide the truth from her family if she chose to go home!

While drinking his glass of whiskey, Nicholas also inquired about the present state of the club. Concurrently, he did not take his eyes off the troubled figure who was seated beside him.

Pushing his glass back, he got up and turned towards the aisle on the other side. Caroline dawdled after him and clutched his arms once again as if Nicholas was her lifesaver.

"Cm..."

"What do you think you're doing? I'll throw you out if you keep following me!"

He withdrew his hand and pivoted his body to the opposite side.

The next second, Caroline immediately rushed in front of him. She cupped his hands and begged him with a pleading look, "Um... Could you send me home?" "Haha, what?"

Amused by her words, Nicholas chuckled as he asked, "Young lady, how old are you? Are you still a child?"

What on earth was going on inside that brain of hers? Earlier, Caroline was desperately searching for her brother, and now she was begging a stranger to send her home?
